Putting together the Parisian Restaurant

We have finally started putting together the Parisian Restaurant, which I have decide to make Riley build at least 60% of it. She is doing really well for this being an Expert Set! Plus I noticed her patience has increased! She is going to need it with this set!

What we have done so far. I never knew the floor said Chez which is the name of the Restaurant, Chez Albert).

It's really going to be done soon!!!!!

As I was about to order my stickers, which is the last thing on my to do list for the MOC. I stopped and wanted to make this post. I guess it's because we have been working on this thing for almost 6 months now, and I'm shocked it's really going to be finished! I think the last time the stickers only took a week and a half, maybe less! The stickers and a few Brick Link orders are the only things that stand in our way. As Riley says "YESSS". Here is an order we got today...

Over one hundred dark blue tiles to the left, and miscellaneous parts to the right.

Another day another LEGO order...

Garage pieces are for the MOC, but check out those pink and frosted purple lightsabers!

Late night Blog (Order 3 of 3)

Catching up around the house has me working on my MOC late at night. It was lonely in the LEGO room without Riley. Tying to push forward to meet my own deadline, which we will be close to it, maybe a few days late. I will soon be putting in my last few orders, FINALLY! Here is my latest order...

Purple bricks didn't work out.

That rope is not for the big MOC!

Theses are though!

Back to Blogging and Merry Christmas!!!

I have been away from the Blog due to the Flu and several other house and family emergencies. When all that was over I took the remaining time to spend with friends and family, because that is what it is all about! Now that Christmas is over, I should have more time to Blog. Merry Christmas to everyone by the way! Here are some photos of the LEGO we got for Christmas....

Placing and Receiving more Orders...(Order 2 of 3)

I have place two Brick Link orders today and will probably place two more. This push will hopefully get me close to finished. In the mean time we will share this order, that we actually got the other day.

There was one Mini Figure missing, I had to hide it because it's one of Riley's stocking stuffer!

Congratulations to MaMa!!!! (Whoomp there it is!)

Congratulations to MaMa for finishing nursing school, for now. (MaMa plans to keep furthering her education) It was a long journey, but we always had faith in her! We are so proud of her that we wanted to make special mention of her accomplishment! We even bought some special LEGO!!

Graduated at last!!!

Whoomp there it is!

LOL!

Still hoping to be done by December.... Order (1 of 3)

I placed 3 orders this past weekend and of course my order from Need a brick or 2 arrived first.
I have about 3 more orders to go I'm trying to be real thorough, so three is all I have to order. Still trying to decide if I will order custom stickers. Most exciting news is that even if we have a few shipping delays we will still be done by the end of December of the first week of January. Here is our latest haul....

Some touch up parts and some for a future MOC.

Riley pointing at the parts she wants!
